Changes in Canine Angulation after Dentoalvelaor Distraction with a Rigid Maxillary Intraoral Distractor: A Radiographic Study

Orthodontic Journal of Nepal, 2013
Introduction: Prolonged treatment duration is a major problem of orthodontic patients. Canine retraction through dentoalveolar distraction osteogenesis was introduced to reduce the overall orthodontic treatment period.

Craniofacial Morphology and Dental Age Assessment in Pediatric Craniosynostosis: A Comparative Cross‐Sectional Study

Clinical and Experimental Dental Research, Volume 12, Issue 5, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Objectives To delineate the craniofacial morphometric characteristics of Thai children with syndromic (SC) and non‐syndromic craniosynostosis (NSC) and to assess dental maturation relative to Chronological Age (CA). Methods This comparative cross‐sectional study evaluated 19 patients (SC: n = 13; NSC: n = 6; mean age 9.32 ± 2.67 years ...

Mechanobiology of distraction osteogenesis

, 2019
Distraction osteogenesis (DO) is a widely used treatment for debilitating skeletal pathologies requiring the formation of a large volume of new bone. The results can be truly life-changing, but a high complication rate of approximately 10-33% persists ...

Distraction osteogenesis of the mandible: evaluation of callus distraction using the B-scan ultrasonography

, 2001
Success with elongating the maxillofacial bones by means of distraction osteogenesis is often achieved by following a few main principles. International experience has illustrated that bone formation inside the distracted gap is ensured by preserving the

Three‐Dimensional Assessment of Upper Airway Morphology and Sleep‐Disordered Breathing Risk in Unilateral Craniofacial Microsomia: A Pilot Study

Orthodontics &Craniofacial Research, Volume 29, Issue 5, Page 926-936, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective Unilateral craniofacial microsomia (UCM) presents varying unilateral deficiencies of the temporomandibular joint, mandibular ramus, masticatory muscles, and adjacent soft tissues and ear. Reduced mandibular and maxillary dimensions may decrease upper airway volume and may increase the risk of sleep‐disordered breathing (SDB).

A Comparative Study of Doppler‐Guided Acute Bone Shortening‐Lengthening Versus Bone Transport for Infected Tibial Defects Combined With Soft Tissue Defects

Orthopaedic Surgery, Volume 18, Issue 10, Page 2128-2141, October 2026.
Under a validated Doppler‐guided safety protocol (≤ 3 cm), acute shortening‐lengthening and bone transport show comparable safety and functional outcomes for infected tibial defects, but shortening‐lengthening significantly reduces wound healing time—a design‐inherent benefit without functional superiority. ABSTRACT Objective The management of infected

Patient‐Specific Computational Fluid Dynamics Modeling of Airway Collapse in Infants With Robin Sequence

International Journal for Numerical Methods in Biomedical Engineering, Volume 42, Issue 9, September 2026.
This study presents a novel method to analyze the airflow dynamics across the full respiratory cycle in Robin Sequence infants with upper airway obstruction or collapse. It uses 4DCT‐derived airway anatomy and wall movement combined with Computational Fluid Dynamics simulations.

3D‐Printed Models in Oral Surgery Simulation Training: A Scoping Review

Journal of Dental Education, Volume 90, Issue 9, Page 1296-1321, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Advancements in three‐dimensional (3D) printing have introduced innovative tools for medical and dental education. In dental surgery, 3D‐printed simulation models offer valuable presurgical training. This review explores the scope, study types, key findings, limitations, and future research needs to enhance their application in ...

LIMB SALVAGE USING DISTRACTION OSTEOGENESIS

, 1997
We report the results of distraction osteogenesis (callotasis) for the reconstruction of extensive defects after the excision of skeletal tumours in the limbs. Bone transport was performed in ten patients (five osteosarcomas and five giant-cell tumours),
